I like both pictures in this post the best. You sure look like you're having fun. I have grandkids both younger and older that have no sense of focus. It's enjoyable seeing how much fun you have with your truck. Thanks for sharing!

Re: Project two tone.

I liked your video of cold start on your working truck and enjoyed the startup.
This is exactly what I need as it seems like as I burn varnish out of the tank she starts a little differently each time. I don't have to pump quite as much as when I first started her, and the choke was not closing all the way. Had to snap it shut by hand at first.

Yeah...I pull the choke all the way...start it..then leave it about a 1/4 closed to keep the idle high until it warms up...then I open the choke an away we go..I didn't actually have to pump it...A new sub wanted me to film that part..lol..anyway.

Re: Project two tone.

You may be 15,but after talking with you a few times, you have a much better mindset and maturity than most of the 15 year olds I see around here, although I know one or two that display a higher level of maturity than most….

Re: Project two tone.

Your age reminds me a little of myself when, at 12 years old, I was driving hay tractor, and at 13 I was driving the hay truck.

Good to see a "kid" with enough responsibility and work ethic to keep a truck like this. I wish we had kept the one we had when I was your age.
On my list of things to do when I get home from the Army is to see if I can find some of the rigs my mother abandoned on our old place.
I think I know where they are.

I looked up the town listed under your name, you are pretty remote up there in the mountains, almost California too by the looks of it.
I grew up in the mountains too, and would not trade it for any spot on the planet I have been to yet !!
